HammerTimeReworked

Hammers, excavators, tree axes and sickles come in six material tiers, from Wood up to Emerald, and only the Emerald set has extended abilities. Multi-block actions such as area mining, tree cutting and crop harvesting are handled through configurable limits for area size, tree detection, leaf processing, durability use and processing speed. Larger operations are spread across several server ticks instead of breaking every block at once, which keeps the work from causing lag.

Unloaded chunks are never pulled in by the mod, and switching tools or hotbar slots halts whatever operation was running. Players can disable area effects by sneaking. Tree detection is controlled so that nearby independent trees are not cut by accident.

The mod is a separate implementation that replaces HammerTime as a continuation. Only the adapted 3D tool models and visual assets come from HammerTime, used with permission confirmed by the original author, Ewy. The gameplay systems, configuration, multi-block processing and performance protections are written independently. It is published for Forge only, on 1.12.2, as file 1.1.1, and runs on client and server. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the project includes the original credits and licensing information.
